Description
The MBHX 06-20T static mixer is a disposable helix mixing nozzle for dispensing two-part adhesives from B-System AB cartridges in 4:1 and 10:1 ratios. It has a 6.5 mm bore, 20 elements, and a stepped tip, and at 157.0 mm it is the longest nozzle in the Mixpac MBHX series. Orange elements in a dust grey body mark it as the 4:1 and 10:1 version. The 1:1 and 2:1 version with the same bore, element count, tip, and length is the MBH 06-20T, which has white elements.

Where the MBHX 06-20T fits
- Longest nozzle in the line. At 157.0 mm it is 24.2 mm longer than the 05-20T and 26.0 mm longer than the 06-16T.
- Widest bore with the highest element count. The 6.5 mm bore is the widest of the four MBHX bores, and 20 is the most elements any MBHX model has.
- Same 20 elements as the 05-20T in a wider bore. The 05-20T is the only other 20-element model, with a 5.4 mm bore.
- Same bore as the 06-16D and 06-16T. The 06-16T has the same stepped tip with 16 elements. The 06-16D has a straight tip with 16 elements and is 36.5 mm shorter.
- Same cartridges as the rest of the line. It fits B-System 4:1 and 10:1 cartridges from 45 ml to 75 ml, with the orange elements marking the ratio version.
- Disposable. A fresh nozzle avoids purging and cleanup between adhesive batches, and mounts directly to the cartridge.

The cross-ratio twin is the MBH 06-20T, with the same bore, element count, and tip style for 1:1 and 2:1 cartridges. Element color tells them apart: orange on the MBHX, white on the MBH. All nine MBHX models are on the Mixpac MBHX series page.

- Sample and trial dispensing before committing to a production cartridge size
- Field service and maintenance work with portable cartridge guns
- Dispensing epoxy, polyurethane, silicone, acrylic, and MMA two-part adhesives and sealants
Ordering
The MBHX 06-20T is stocked and sold individually, so you can order one to check fit or test a material before buying a larger quantity. Pair it with matching B-System cartridges and a gun from the MBHX series page, which lists the guns that fit each cartridge.
Frequently asked questions
What cartridges does the MBHX 06-20T fit?
Mixpac B-System AB cartridges in 4:1 and 10:1 ratios, covering the 50 ml 4:1, the 45 ml and 50 ml 10:1, and the 75 ml 10:1 sizes. It does not fit F-System 200 or 400 series cartridges, which use the MFHX or MFQX instead.
What is the difference between the MBHX 06-20T and the MBH 06-20T?
Element color and ratio. The MBHX has orange elements and is built for 4:1 and 10:1 cartridges. The MBH 06-20T has white elements and is built for 1:1 and 2:1. Both share the 6.5 mm bore, 20 elements, stepped tip, and length, but the ratios do not interchange. Check the element color against the ratio printed on your cartridge.
When should I step up to the MBHX 06-20T?
Step up when the mixed bead shows streaking, color variation, or uneven cure at a lower element count and you want the widest bore. The 06-16T and 06-16D share the 6.5 mm bore with 16 elements. The 06-20T adds four elements without changing the bore. At 4:1 and especially 10:1 there is far less of the B side to distribute, so these chemistries can be less forgiving of a short mixer.
What is the difference between the MBHX 06-20T and the 05-20T?
Bore and length. Both have 20 elements and a stepped tip. The 06-20T has the 6.5 mm bore and is 24.2 mm longer. The 05-20T has the 5.4 mm bore.
Can I buy a single MBHX 06-20T nozzle?
Yes. The MBHX 06-20T is stocked and sold individually, so you can order one to check fit or test a material before buying a larger quantity. The 05-16T is the other MBHX model stocked this way.
Does the MBHX 06-20T need a converter or retaining nut?
No. It mounts directly to the B-System cartridge with a twist and lock connection. No converter, no retaining nut, no tools.
